Following the purchase of our 5.5 acre site in Alford last year significant refurbishment and expansion of existing office and warehouse space has taken place. One of our biggest renovation projects is just coming to an end. We needed to overhaul one of our 5 warehouses where the underside of the roof had been sprayed with asbestos. Starting at the end of April it took specialists until September to remove the asbestos layers by hand in hermetically sealed conditions to avoid any contamination of the environment. Once the all-clear was received by environmental inspectors, a new, energy-efficient roof was installed. The asbestos removal and the new roof were part funded with a LEADER grant from the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development, as Alford is covered by the Coastal Action Zone.
Once the rest of the warehouse renovation is completed by the end of December we will begin to assemble fire safety trolleys in the building. Shortly after, we will be starting to manufacture some of our fire safety products in the newly refurbished facility.
Safelincs has been growing at a rate of 30% year on year for the last 4 years. The increasing demand for our products has fuelled a recruitment spree and Safelincs has become one of the leading employers in the area.

He went on to say ‘We are pleased to be supporting a national awareness campaign with 
When East Coast Grafix, a printing company based in Lincolnshire, were replacing some of their fire doors they saw the ideal opportunity to look at how they could improve the movement of their staff within the building.
Suspended ceilings offer sleek designs and cover unsightly facilities, however, they also make the placement of traditional emergency lighting difficult, especially when trying to maintain the clean flow of the ceiling. The very best solution is to have lighting panels and emergency lights in the same design and size, offering the same light output in normal operation.

With around 62% of all home fires starting in the kitchen we should ask if we give this area of home safety as much thought as we ought to. Given that 50% of these fires are caused by cooking appliances, this question is paramount whether you are a landlord or a home owner.
